I love and only wear translucent powders, and since T. LeCerc is loved by all the stars I decided to give it a shot. Boy, was I disappointed by this powder. First, it is NOT translucent! Even though I have fair skin, this showed up very ashy on me. The texture wasn't that great either. Overall, I don't know what all the hype is, but all I know is that this is not "all that". Try Laura Mercier's translucent powder, Bare Escentual's Mineral Veil, or Shu Umura's.
